BACKGROUND
Gómez Aparicio was founded in the late 50´s with the objective of covering a growing demand in the book sector. It began its activity with binding. In the 90´s it became one of the most important binding companies in Spain and the biggest producer in Europe of books using binding in Bible paper offering hard cover and paperback finishes. Thanks to its many years of experience in finishing processes and to the growth of the company, it has taken on new challenges by incorporating other design processes, like preprinting and offset printing in black and white and in four colors. It has transformed itself into a pioneer company in offering comprehensive services in the graphic arts field. Following the innovative tradition of the GROUP, in 2014 it adds the latest technologies of inkjet digital printing with the clear objective of offering a service to cover all clients´ needs and thus becoming the first graphic arts group in producing books with offset and digital technologies in the same facility. In the past few years it has been adding innovative technologies and processes, both at a machine level and with software, so it can offer its clients a 360º service based in excellence by creating a value chain and offering services like layout, storage, picking, distribution and on-demand orders.
